Of Ants, time and folds uncreased

Ant assiduities      stepbricks    chinkfills     towards that rude

Wanted awakening from the somnolent simulation

The two dimensional vistas of the diligent      of the three

Dimensional world is beyond the ideas of up and depth

But distance       only that      and the I am the centre of the universe/

Collapsing    shrinking     wilting into the Hiranyagarbha, the

golden womb, to pedal forth expand uniformly

distended dreams

The anthill eavesdrop the music of the queen's death

Work their usual sweat     pheromone fermented     honeyfreezed

Unable to bubble    

pop/

The rectitude of time is my tilted walk      moonwalking      moonsaulting

To miscellany of moments; Devadatta* waits wings unfurled

Unsaddled willing

parrot woman-wise prophecy-reciting

Flaming sword (Waits) or do lesser equally heroic things like

Put those honeypotted ants out of their

Misery/
